Theme: Your Best “Get Them Back” Moment

My husband has always been an extreme smartass, which is one of the reasons I love him so much.  Before we were married, it was almost like a contest, to see “who could get who” – and let me just say that I am NO loser!

One day at work, I decided to make a nice little sticker to put onto the back of his truck.  I searched on the internet for just the right picture – something that would floor his ass!  I found it!  It was a picture of a turtle, standing next to his shell, with a rainbow on his stomach.  So, I snagged the picture and added the nice little caption “Coming Out & Proud” – that would get him!

I printed my little image onto sticker paper and took it home with me.  That night, while he was hanging with friends, I went out to the driveway and stuck it onto the back passenger side window, as I thought he would be least likely to notice it there.  Well it worked.  He drove around for an entire week with that damn sticker.  Mr. tough guy in his big old Land Cruiser, with all his tattoos and his big old gay pride sticker.  It was even funnier when his friend Barry would be riding with him – they looked like such a cute couple!

They finally found the sticker the following Saturday, when he and Barry went on a breakfast run.  Upon leaving the restaurant, they were walking to the truck and Barry said “What the hell does that sticker say?”  and my husband said “What Sticker?” – they walked up to it and both were like “WTF?”

EURICA! OH SWEET GLORY IS MINE!  I GOT HIS ASS!  FOR A WEEK HE WAS OUT OF THE CLOSET WITH THE GAYNESS HE NEVER KNEW HE HAD!

Alright - I have woken up from the dead state I have been in ALL day.  Like a retard, I got drunk last night.  Me and T met Dena and her hubby at Shogun Japanese Steakhouse for dinner.  There was a little bit of a wait, so we, of course, spent the time having cocktails at the bar.  After dinner, and with a buzz, we decided to head over to Kelly’s Tavern for another drink.  We weren’t real impressed there, so we moved on to The Jewish Mother (or Jew Mom’s as we call it).  We had a couple drinks there and did some shots (sent over to us by our husbands who were, for some reason, at the other end of the bar) in hope of some drunken sex later on in the evening.  So we took the shots, and asked the bartender to kindly thank them, but that it would take more than a couple lemon drops to get some sex!  We then moved onto Murphy’s Irish Pub, which is farely new, but was pretty nice - and more drinks!  At this point we were done.  We met for dinner at 7:15 and got home at 1:30.

Needless to say, I spent a good portion of the day laying around with my bed buddy.  Why must I punish myself?  Thank god mom had the kids!

Aloha Friday is brought to you by the letter A and by Snarky!

Tell us about some of your favorite teachers in school.
Ms. Gahagan was my 4th Grade teacher - and she was amazing.  She looked like she would be so mean and cold and was quite old…but was the most understanding patient teacher I ever had.  She taught every child in a style that would work for them.  If this kid liked skateboarding…that’s what she used in her lessons.  If she did not know anything about skateboarding…she learned, if it helped her student learn!  She was amazing.

Have you gone to a high school reunion? Was it what you expected?
My 10 year reunion was last summer and I did go, after being beat up by Nadine to go.  It was pretty much what I expected it to be, but I wish they would have done some kind of daytime picnic thing, so that everyone could have met each others children, etc.

Spread the spirit of blog aloha & pick someone off your blogroll for us to visit!
